So I will throw this idea out there for removing scratches on hard plastic however you have to be careful with the process, using a heat gun works on this issue, you are basically slightly heating the plastic enough to soften the oils in the plastic and with the right amount of heat it will make the scratches disappear, trick is to heat it just enough and not too much, there are videos on line, take a look.

I too, have all kinds of scratches on my driver’s side door panel. I’ve had my ‘22 hybrid Lariat since 27 Oct 22. I’m not too worried about the scratches in the plastic where I’m going to “freak out” over it. I’m going on 66 and plan on keeping my Maverick for a long time. It is what it is.

More interior scratch shaming from the MTC community! Why am I not surprised.

I had many trucks and cars, none scratch as easily as the maverick interior plastic. That being said if it does not bother you that is great no need to comment, scratch your interior somewhere and enjoy it. Many are bothered and that is what this thread is about. You like scratches, you don't mind scratches, it's a truck, it's an inexpensive truck, we heard it all. I am still bothered by each and every scratch and many others are as well. You don't have to comment on threads that are of no interest to you. If I don't like a thread because I'm not interested I don't read it and I definitely don't comment on it.

Who died and made you boss?

No boss, common sense, common courtesy. You don't have to comment on threads that are of no interest to you or things you don't care about.

I wouldn't mind the interior being scratch prone so much if it wouldn't scratch me back. The plastic edges on some parts are just brutally cheap, especially around the door lock buttons and door handle. I'm shocked on how bad and rough feeling it is. I almost want to see if I can smooth it out...

If you leave anything on your dashboard, it will remind you every time you drive your truck. I placed a piece of pbc pipe on mine, (slid through the sliding rear window) and regreted it ever since. The scratches drove me crazy until I bought a dashpad to cover it up. Now I'm a happy camper!

Another vote for 303, best product I've used for cleaning up and protecting surfaces in cars.
